I think many wel-cultivated wines aren't necessarily labeled as organic - if you look into the labeling more. A lot of European wines from what I've heard are basically organic but may not carry the label

This ^

High quality producers typically don’t bother getting those certs even tho their wine is organic/biodynamic. For example, one California producer I frequent has a completely biodynamic farm but their neighbors use pesticides so if the wind blows the wrong direction during a spray, it can be detected on some crops, which the organic police will doc them for.

Price range?

Look for wines from specific importers that lean organic. Dressner, MFW, Weygandt.

Also, any wine with a demeter certification.

Gut Oggau, fantastic selection of biodynamic wines. The family story is amazing and they name different wines after family and friends. Really a pillar of organic/biodynamic wine industry in Europe !!! While from Burgenland in Austria, you can find them online in the US.

Are you coming at it from a health or sustainability perspective? Or other? Organic and biodynamic mean pretty different things and like Associate said, lots of quality places will go uncertified so they can follow the best combination of practices for their site.

Any recommendations on getting into wine? I love other specialty beverages (3rd wave coffee, craft beer), but struggle to “figure out” wine.

The ability to get involved with local beer and coffee producers has been a huge factor for me, so I’m guessing the comparative lack of local wine producers has contributed to me struggling to understand more of the process, culture, tasting notes, etc.

I need advice from the collective. It seems like there is a trend to sell wine in unique bottles. The only problem with this, those bottles will not fit into my wine fridge. Has anyone transferred wine to standard bottles and are you concerned about the wine one it hits the air? I’ve looked at vacuum stoppers but not sure if this is a good idea or not.
